Pokemusings, week 43

Like any worldwide phenomenon, the Pokemon franchise has its fair share of products that are completely unrelated to its core. As proud owners of Plusle and Minun salt-and-pepper shakers, as well as a Pokemon ramen bowl, we've bought into Pokemon consumerism, quite literally. In addition to everyday knickknacks, there are a slew of Pokemon devices that we'll never get the chance to own. This week's Pokemusings looks at some of these Pokemon dream machines.

If we had unlimited resources, we'd buy one of these Poke-planes in a heartbeat. Naturally, they'd have to be customized for personal use. The back of the plane would be called Pichu's Paradise - a fancy moniker for an area we'd make all kids under the age of 10 hang out. It would have plenty of toys and entertainment so that children wouldn't cry the whole flight. The front of the plane would be Snorlax' Lounge, where non-weepers would rest comfortably. The upper deck would be dubbed Brock's Pimp Lair, where we'd have an open bar, disco lights, and a private bedroom with a circular bed. Of course, we'd still make the plane's staff wear the Pokemon-branded aprons.
